The USA offered an alternative in WW2 to the Communists and the Nazis. Therefore, it was supported, more enthusiastically after the Soviets showed their hand.
Anyone who cannot see the difference between the US and China is, quite frankly, retarded, and they'll get what they deserve.

No idea what you are talking about. The murdering of vietnamese villagers, women and yes even babies, somehow was justified ?
Ok, you do you.

What murdering? You mean by the Viet Cong?

Vietcong was brutal, no doubt. But they didn't start the war - US did. Americans murdered unarmed civilians, gangraped women and killed their babies (1968, My Lai, the famous "And babies? - And Babies")

US did worse. They rounded up Phillipine civilians in 'camps' pumped them with water and stomped their bellies till they died (1900):

Some Americans committed war crimes and got prosecuted. This happens in every war.
Did America start it? They inherited unstable Vietnam from the French and wanted to keep it from falling into Communist hands.
I would say China started it.
Should we talk about the Mongols here? I think any aggression by Caucasians toward Asians is fully explained by that genetic memory.
